Description

Product Overview

The model 1,000 LP is the very best of our one-piece rests, and is our biggest seller. In addition to all of the features of the Model 1,000 it has three additional features that provide greater convenience and comfort for the shooter who understands the relation between having the best equipment and getting the best results.

There are two separate elevation adjustments. At the front there Is the usual threaded rod with keyway for coarse adjustments, but the wheel that is used to change elevation is much larger in diameter with convenient square notches around its circumference so that changes can be more easily and conveniently made.

The fine elevation adjustment is at the back of the rest, and is built into the rear bag’s holder. Adjustments are made with a notched wheel that is similar to the one in front and large enough in diameter to extend beyond the bag so that it is very easy to use. This adjustment does not require any sort of locking mechanism because the threaded adjustment is opposed by four stout die springs, one at each corner of the plate that supports the rear bag. These springs take up the slack and provide a sturdy platform for the rear bag, while allowing for easy adjustment, given the leverage that the threaded rod and wheel afford.

There is also a large and convenient trigger hand rest plate that is adjustable for position along the bars that connect the front and back of the rest. This allows the shooter to be more relaxed, which contributes to accuracy.

To the staff at targetshooting.com Your 1000lp rifle rest in a word is superb, so easy to fine tune is a testament to the quality of design and workmanship. Being a 40 year veteran tool and die maker I can tell you this is fantastic. Makes a day at the range that much more enjoyable and the best part is the tighter groups. Money well spent on a piece that will last generations!

This past summer I purchased from you one of your rifle rests.

First of all, I want to say that there are a very few times in my life that I have purchased what I would consider the very best. Usually I have settled for less than the best because of price.

Secondly, I have seldom written to someone after making a purchase telling them how happy I am with the product I bought.

Well, I have had the summer to use and evaluate your 1000LP Rifle Rest. I have owned a few rifle rests and I can honestly say that no other rifle rest I have owned compares to the quality, precision, and ease of use as your 1000LP. I would have saved money in the long run if I had bought yours first instead of buying ‘less expensive’ rifle rests….trying to save some money.

At last I am able to see how good my rifle can shoot. Now the rest is up to me.

I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with my purchase. The 1000LP is top notch. Thank you

I called my shooting instructor Bart and told him that I was going to try to shoot 3 nickels in a row from 200 yards with my HS Precision PHR in 270 WSM. He said “ok”. The next night he called me back and told me that I should lower my expectations and began to explain how difficult my goal was. I interrupted him to tell him that he was too late, I hit two in a row and missed the third by a hair.

It provides a solid base, easy to use. Since few of the shooters had seen your rest before it was given a close inspection. Without exception all were very impressed with it’s quality, and the flexibility. This coupled with your great service, pride in your product I would give your rest the highest marks and recommend it to anyone if you want the best. It has been my pleasure to work with you, you are always more willing to take time to answer questions, an make suggestions. Thank you, Eb Spink

Purchased the model 1000LP and I simply can’t say enough about it. It is everything Wally advertises. Rock solid and capable of absolute precision adjustments. With this rest I was able to shoot sub 1/2 MOA groups with my 340 Weatherby. Purchase this rest and you will not regret it.

With my new 1000LP, I no longer wonder whether the rifle is shooting as printed or I inadvertently moved the muzzle. This rest has virtually eliminated my doubts about the effects of human error.

The 1000LP is “not” the only Rests I own… The others I purchased for about the same price, and for the most part the others look as though they copied each others design. The 1000LP I have only owned for about 5 months. but without question the only one I take to the shoots. Great Product – Wish I could have found it a few years ago. S.Scott

This is a very solid, well built rest. Changing the front bag is a snap. Holds my rifle rock solid, and the fine adjustment left/right, and up/down is smooth and precise.

The rest in my opinion is a perfect 5 stars, however with the customer service that Wally has provided. I really wish that there was A 10 star rating. The man behind the product makes it worth every cent. This is pure quality, from purchase, to after purchase service. Its not only functional its a work of art. Every time I go to the range someone will ask me about my rest. Thank you for A great tool. your customer for life Wayne >>>>>

This rifle rest is built with precision and is exactly what I was hoping it would be. Wally is great to talk with and he goes out of his way to answer any questions you have and to make sure you are a satisfied customer. I will definitely be ordering more products from him in the future. Thanks Wally!

There are absolutely “NO EQUALS” to this rest on the market today. It takes shooting to a whole new level. It will make good shooters better and better shooters the best they can be if used properly and professionally. Construction is “Dead On Precise”, in part, due to it’s singular build practice and being made by Americans for Americans. As a disabled Combat Veteran, wounded in Vietnam, this rest would have a serious impact on any battlefield, anywhere in the world, if deployed with Sniper Teams. Every “Police or Sheriff Tactical Team” in the United States should own one of these rests as a training aid in shooter development, competition and worse case scenario’s if time permitted. This rest could be a game changer in long distance interdiction and could take the guess work out of shot placement due to it’s precise movement of control parts.

I purchased the 1000 rifle rest and the pistol rest. They are by far the best shooting rest on the market. It makes sighting in easy and fun. You know you are sighted in properly and accurately. The quality of the products is far and away the best available. Customer service is second to none. Call and Wally answers all questions and addresses any concerns. Nothing but good old fashion quality and service. Thanks Wally!

By far the best shooting rest I have ever used. Wally was great to work with in getting my rest set up for a left handed shooter. Will be looking forward to many years of shooting with this rest and will be making future purchases from Targetshooting.com First the recoil setup and then their shooting bench (once I’m not paying for my children’s college…)

Product is easy to set up and use. With this rest I can be assured of what my rifle and ammunition can achieve at long range. Thank you Wally for designing and manufacturing such a precision product.

Thank you for building a wonderful product. I’ve been fortunate to test and own many one piece rests. The 1000 LP is right at the top in comparison, the wind-age and elevation controls are precise, the construction is solid and clean. Although I shoot rim-fire for score, the rest is manageable moving from bull to bull. I also like the lower center of gravity and your rear bag design, very unique and feel it adds stability and dampening benefits. The rest is much easier to transport than my other one piece rests, which is a plus. When I laid my hands on this rest for the first time, I didn’t think it had the potential, was I wrong. Well done Wally, your also a true gentleman to speak with on the phone.

Kind regards,
Joe Friedrich

Without any doubt! Without any hesitation! Hands down!! The 1000LP bench rest is absolutely the BEST bench rest ever made!! Wally is an Engineering genius! NOT only the best rest ever made! BUT the most heavy duty rest ever! This rest will last anyone a lifetime of great shooting. I have 7 bench rest in my basement now, NONE come close to the 1000LP rest. I have also used almost every rest on the market at one time and the 1000LP blows them all away. Makes your hobby much more fun to shoot from a quality rest like the Targetshooing.com 1000LP

This is a really nice piece of equipment. It keeps your rifle stable and is really easy to adjust. My groups have gotten smaller since I started using it. All you have to do is follow Wally’s instructional video and you’ll be successful. It has turned out to be much better than the other equipment I’ve used. It’s too bad I didn’t see the 1000LP first because it would have saved me a lot of time, trouble and money. I’ve used most of the other products available and this is better than all of them. My only complaint is that the stock height adjustment knob is too small and short making adjustments difficult when you’re sitting behind the rest while at the bench. If you buy the 1000LP I suggest that you buy the bigger/longer knob option while your at it. So other than the minor problem with the knob all I can say is that I love this product.

I have been admiring this rest for over a year and finally pulled the trigger … and I am glad I did. Initially, I thought it appeared pricey … but after looking at other rests, I found there are a number of rests at this price point and NONE provided the construction quality or value of this unit. I was looking for a stable rest that I could develop extremely accurate long-range rifles on. This rest is more then adequate for the job. The rest sits a bit lower than the photo graphs make it appear … and it is quite heavy. In combination, that makes this rest an extremely stable firing platform by keeping the recoil thrust low. I was shocked how well it managed the recoil from my 7mm magnum. Merely pushing the rifle back into position after the shot and I was back on target. Construction wise, this thing is a beast. I believe you could drop it out of a 3rd floor window and it would survive. Pity the concrete.

Wally – I thought you would like to know that I had the chance to use the shooting rest for the first time yestarday and I can honestly say my benchrest shooting scores improved, sometimes dramatically, in the case of my bolt action 30-06. The weight and precise changes you can make without having to move the entire rest seem to make all the difference. Other rests have you rearranging everything to change windage & height which, for me, seems to cause a lot of error.

Even though it was the main reason I selected your rest, I have not yet had the chance to try the handgun setup with the model 1000 rear but I’m sure it will work great. Hopefully I can get to the range sometime this week or the weekend to try it with the handguns.

Thanks for making a great product.

I can’t thank you enough for introducing me to the Model 1000LP Bench Rest. It has helped me immensely with my scoring. My gun, an Anschutz 2013 model sits perfectly true and solid in the rest. The adjustments front and back are amazingly accurate and very user friendly. I would strongly recommend this rest to any rifle shooter who insists on accuracy. Bill Hunter, Alberta Canada

Wally, after using the rifle rest, since leaving the Tulsa show. I highly recommend this rifle rest for any and all bench rest competitions. As an NRA instructor and competitor in 600 yard matches this bench rest competes and exceeds even some of the Sinclair bench rests.

Many of our club members have expressed interest in and have used my rest and all make same comment; “why does a bench rest of this precision come delivered in a nickle and dime case?” All things being equal this is absolutely the best bench rest I have used and sincerely recommend it’s use to all serious bench rest competitors.

Wally Brownlee says what he means and means what he says about his model 1000LP Rifle Rest… it will greatly improve your shooting accuracy. Anyone, what is a formula for successful target shooting? Well, try this one: POA + 1000LP Rifle Rest = POI x Fun (cubed). That is: using the model 1000LP, you hit where you aim and have big fun doing so. Folks, I’m having fun targeting shooting. Purchased the 1000LP Rifle Rest in Oct ‘10 and I love it!!! It is what Wally says it is…the best rifle rest on the market. Now I can focus on shooting and get quality trigger time at the range. For me, the drudgery of handling multiple sand bags to stabilize my weapon is over. Once I properly position the 1000LP, it stays put. I place my rifle in the attached sand bags and the rifle is stable. I can then focus on my shooting accuracy. The finely tuned windage and elevation adjustments knobs finish the setup. Bam! Results… My POI equals POA or just a click or two from it, all else considered. Watch Wally’s YouTube videos; they are very informative. Call Wally; he’s a cool guy. The model 1000LP rifle rest is what he says it is… a difference maker in your shooting accuracy. I’m much more accurate and consistent using it. Just as important, though, I’m having FUN shooting with it. So will you. Wally, it’s great doing business with you. Likewise, enjoyed our conversations.

Thanks Wally. Call you soon.
